I seem to have stumbled into another rift and lost a month. The last I recall, it was the 23rd of December.

Are all of your all right? Have I missed anything important?

There was a present left in my room while I was gone. From Santa Claus, apparently. Have you ever heard of a Wolfsbane potion?

How strange, I never noticed you'd gone.

But yes, all is well here!

It is a shame you've missed Christmas, though. I made you a present!

Oh, it's so good to hear from you! We were all terribly worried.

[ There's a moment Hermione gasps softly, but of course this younger version of Remus Lupin would be unaware. ]

Of course I have. It's a complicated potion, and it... it relieves the symptoms of lycanthrope. It eases the symptoms, rather. An incredible amount.

Santa Clause has left gifts in Chicago before. I know it seems strange, but it's either really him or really magic that gives you a great gift every Christmas.

I'm fine, also. You haven't missed anything except Christmas. I'm glad you're back.
